    Is there a studio version of Vex's song "Pain," featured on the "Live at Camden" set mp3 here? It sounds like a great sond.

    VEX have been one of my favorite finds on your blog, as I'm a fan of Killing Joke, especially their '79 - 1983 period, and Vex have sorta nailed that sound in way others haven't (even Headhunters). For ex, the Vex song "No Crime" is almost note for note like KJ's great "The Wait," which also a big influence on Amebix.

  10. Looking forwad to hear the demo... someone told me there should be a 7inch out as well... but they could not confirm on that... really a pity that this stuff won't be reissued on cd... really sad...
